Inside Hack Day #2 at the Guardian

Journalists, editors, designers, commercial teams, developers and several friends and partners of the Guardian all joined the Hack Day challenge together...build something in 24 hours and show your work in 90 seconds.

While the event is mostly about the people building things, the guests and judges all added to the success of the event, too.

We invited several friends and partners who inspired the team and got involved in various ways. Most of them participated by giving a 5 minute lightning talk, and then they hacked alongside Guardian teams or worked on ideas of their own.

It's always a challenge to capture the most inspiring and useful ideas that come out of Hack Day, and this was no exception. There were an exceptional number of brilliant hacks on display and no shortage of creative talent pushing everyone into uncharted territory.
